because it expands
If the horse is exposed to the colder weather, his body knows that it is time to grow a winter coat. However if he is blanketed and/or stalled, he will not be exposed to the weather, or not exposed very much, and therefore won't grow a very good winter coat because he has no reason to.Normally the change of seasons, but a winter coats keeps them warm and cozy during winter!!!
Antarctica is severe -- extremely severe -- all the time. Winter, however, is more severe than summer, because many winter months can pass with no sunrise, depending on where you are on the continent.
well lots of hurricanes occur during summer and there's always snowstorms in winter, so my conclusion is Winter and Summer

They do neither, they store food for the winter with which they supliment their foraging diet. However, during severe winter spells they can fall into a sort of torpor which decreases their physiological activity.

Look for a storm shelter and cover any exposed parts of your body to keep dry. If you are in a car, the driver should keep the engine running if the exhaust pipe is not covered in snow!
Raccoons and skunks may be seen about during winter months. During the coldest and snowiest times they remain in their den and sleep. It is not a true hibernation, however, as they may arise during less severe days and forage for food.
The gray fox remains active all winter, only retiring to a den if the weather gets severe. They continue hunting for prey just as they would during the summer.
